Before getting into the various types of modems, let's get to know what a modem is first. Modem is an abbreviation of modulator and demodulator.
In short, a modem is a communication device that is useful as a two-way communication tool so that the internet network can be received by computers or desktop devices better.
The modulator serves to deliver data in the form of an information signal to a carrier signal so that it can be sent by the user through certain media. This process is known as the modulation process. In this process, the data in the form of digital signals on the computer will be converted into analog signals.
While the demoulator serves to get back the data sent by the sender, In this process, data will be separated from high frequencies and data in the form of analog signals will be converted back into digital signals so that they can be read by computer users.
